Zalympix 2026: O Cacapo Takes the Podium
The 2026 California Zalympix — often called the “Grammys of Weed” — wrapped on May 30th in Los Angeles, and Maison O Cacapo walked away with hardware.
Black Zushi placed:
- 3rd Place — Best Overall Flowe( public vote)
- 2nd Place — Best Tasting Flower( public vote)
Competing against 35+ of California’s top cultivators in the year’s most competitive Zalympix field to date, Black Zushi held its own against the state’s best — earning recognition in both categories judged by the public who purchased Zalympix boxes and sampled every entry side by side.
Why This Result Matters
Zalympix isn’t judged by press releases or dispensary hype — it’s decided by everyday consumers who buy a box, sample dozens of competing flowers blind, and vote on what actually stands out. Placing top 3 in Best Overall and top 2 in Best Tasting against a field that size is a genuine, public-verified result — not a marketing claim.
